HC Deb 16 April 1985 vol 77 cc151-2W
17. Mr. Greenway

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how much is being spent on the re-establishment of former psychiatric and psychologically disturbed patients in the community; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

Money is spent by a wide range of statutory and voluntary bodies on services for mentally disordered people in the community. We do not have enough detailed information centrally to enable us to make a worthwhile estimate of the total sum spent by all these bodies from all sources.
